The World Against Her
"Why does it hurt so much just to live this life?
My parents have forsaken me.
Have no place to call my home.
My friends no longer hit my line, like they did before.

Is it because I've lost my job and now I'm no use to them?
Is it because I have no money to take them out anymore?
I should have known better than hanging out with 'em.

I go to the tavern for some drinks and hook up with a random guy, now they're calling a prostitute.
They're judging me with their demonic minds.
Forgetting that the society is filled up with bunch of liars, and people who commit adultery.

Just because I gave my body to man so that I could have something to feed my kids and keep them in school, now they're saying I'm for the street.
Why do you judge me of the type of hustle that I do?

But I ain't saying I'm proud of what I've become.
I just hope one day things will come my way."
